Snapshot of Prescribed Fire in the Lake States

In December, we will reflect on today’s prescribed fire landscape in the Lake States, examine pinch points, and discuss where we go next.

PRESENTERS

Michele Witecha

Prescribed Fire Specialist, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources

Michele began her prescribed fire journey as a volunteer burn crew member with The Nature Conservancy in 2002. Her career background is primarily in wildlife/endangered species management and fire ecology in Florida, Texas, and Kansas. She worked with both public and private prescribed burn programs in the southeast and the Midwest before joining the Wisconsin DNR fire program in 2013. As the specialist for the DNR prescribed fire program for the last 7 years Michele has had the privilege of working with field staff and outside partners (such as Jack and Jim!) to continually improve and increase prescribed fire on both public and private lands.
